It's Gonna Be A Cold Cold Christmas
Darleens Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

According to the radio
Warmer weather's on the way
The chances are, we won't be getting snow
But even if the sun shines
From now to Christmas day
As far as I'm concerned, I know

It's gonna be a cold, cold Christmas without you
Dreaming of those warm, warm lazy summer days
It's gonna be a long and lonely Christmas without you
Missing you my darling, in oh so many ways

Yesterday I saw your mom and dad
We bought our cards together
I've put the presents on the Christmas tree
And as I write this letter
It's warm, inside
The log fire's burning right, oh darling
If only you were here, to make it right

It's gonna be a cold, cold Christmas without you
Dreaming of those warm, warm lazy summer days
It's gonna be a long and lonely Christmas without you
Missing you my darling, in oh so many ways

I didn't bother with the mistletoe
You won't be here to kiss me
The only consolation that I've got
I'll know for sure you miss me
It won't be long until you're home again
And we can share these magic moments
But 'til then

It's gonna be a cold, cold Christmas without you
Dreaming of those warm, warm lazy summer days
It's gonna be a long and lonely Christmas without you
Missing you my darling, in oh so many ways

It's gonna be a cold, cold Christmas without you
Dreaming of those warm, warm lazy summer days
It's gonna be a long and lonely Christmas without you
Missing you my darling, in oh so many ways

cold, cold Christmas
Miss you darling




Dreaming of those summer days
Darling Christmas

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Darleen's song, "It's Gonna Be A Cold Cold Christmas" express the feelings of loneliness and longing for a loved one during the festive season. The song starts with the radio announcing warmer weather, but the singer is not interested in that because she/ he knows Christmas is going to be cold and cheerless without their partner. The following lines make it quite clear that the singer used to enjoy the summer days with their partner who is now not around, and they are dreaming of those warm, lazy days. It seems like the couple was used to spending their time together in the sun, and now the festivities of Christmas without their loved one will only make things worse.


The middle verse tells us about the singer's Christmas preparation. They have decorated the Christmas tree with the presents and even wrote a letter to their partner. Despite all the warmth, there is a sense of emptiness since the singer's loved one is not there to make it right. In the end, the singer feels like they will miss their partner a lot even though they won't be kissing under the mistletoe. However, there's a sense of hope that their beloved will come back soon, and then they can make the Christmas season merry just like those summer days.


Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of loneliness and the longing for a beloved partner, missing the warmth of summer days. However, despite the despair associated with the situation, the song ends on a note of hope.
